Homeopathic Medicine
This powerful system of medicine is more than 200 years old and is widely accepted in many countries. Homeopathic medicines work on a subtle, energetic level to activate the body's innate healing mechanism. These remedies are nontoxic and safe. Educated in Classical Homeopathy, Dr. Rona has studied extensively and participated in many seminars and two separate yearlong clinical experiences with exceptional teachers. She is experienced in selecting the specific homeopathic remedy which is unique to the individual. She is also trained in the use of Schuessler Cell Salts (also known as tissue salts).
Clinical Hypnotherapy
Hypnosis is a naturally occurring 'state of mind' that everyone has experienced many times, whether by accident or on purpose. The current medical definition of hypnosis is: An altered state of consciousness in which the conscious mind is temporarily bypassed, so that the subconscious mind becomes highly receptive to selective, positive suggestions. Hypnotherapy is a scientifically verified highly effective technique that can promote accelerated human change. With Hypnotherapy we can make desired change in behaviors and encourage mental and physical health and well-being. Dr. Rona has training and experience to effectively utilize this technique to engage and promote the body’s healing mechanisms.
Lifestyle Counseling
The foundations of naturopathic medicine is patient empowerment. The individual assumes responsibility for his or her own health and seeks prevention of illness before its onset. Dr. Rona guides her patients in adapting their attitudes, activities, choices and emotions, to enhance healing and if necessary remove any obstacles to optimal health. Dr. Rona is trained in various techniques of mind-body medicine and lifestyle modification including relaxation and stress-reduction practices, exercise instruction, environment modification, Reiki, reflexology, and neurolinguistic techniques. These practices are employed to help each patient attain well-being; reduce risk of preventable disease; and improve overall quality of life.
Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is the practice of using concentrated volatile plant oils (essential oils) for psychological and physical well-being. These essential oils offer a powerful healing modality. Dr. Rona not only has training and experience in the use of this modality, but has authored courses and articles on the subject.
Bach Flower Remedies
Flower remedies were developed in the late 1920's by Dr. Edward Bach. Realizing a key element in health or lack of health was an emotional component, Dr. Bach explored potential of certain flowers to address these issues. Dr. Rona is trained and experienced in the use of these gentle yet profound remedies that balance emotions and enhance well-being.
